[Intro]
*Coughing*
Oh, this some dumb ass shit
You feel me? [?]
That was back then baby, this is right now
Tell me I just want more
Ugly past tense baby, look at me now
What were you saying about the, uhh, about the track earlier, because [?]
That's [?] the shit, yeah (Mm, mm)
Yeah
[Chorus]
That was back then baby, this is right now
Ugly past tense baby, look at me now
Watch the way I use my energy to whip the frown
Couple problems back then, but I got a lot now
I-I was gone then baby, but I'm back now
She wan' do it dirty, so she gettin backed now
Glasear sent me opens and I send 'em tracked down
She told me hit it raw, now she getting smacked down
[Verse]
She got my pocket change account
If she want the next bag just gotta tell me the amount
Through the jet lag I could tell she hold me down
Shame these realizations hit me now
It's funny how they hit me when I'm not around, maybe it's a sign
And I knew she not the one when she tried to get me plug her lines
She like "I only do this shit from time to time", but even sometimes is too high
And that's the one time that she cried
She said "I'm quitting it tomorrow"
And that's the fifth time that she lied
I'd be mad as fuck but I am too high
Guess I need to choose sides
Baby, I'm a mess
I got empty medication bottles laying on my desk
I do a lot of drugs and I just blame it on the stress
And the feelings I'm too timid to release from out my chest
I found the more I load the more I start to worry less
Just in case I fold I keep a q inside my vest and say "I need to take a breath"
[Chorus]
That was back then baby, this is right now
Ugly past tense baby, look at me now
Watch the way I use my energy to whip the frown
Couple problems back then, but I got a lot now
I-I was gone then baby, but I'm back now
She wan' do it dirty, so she gettin backed now
Glasear sent me opens and I send 'em tracked down
She told me hit it raw, now she getting smacked down
